Measure Description: Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index WOMAC pain subscale score (pain score = min 0 to max 20), was determined by the sum of subject's responses to five questions (S1-S5) using a 5-point Likert scale (i.e., 'none'=0; 'mild'=1, 'moderate'=2; 'severe'=3; 'extreme'=4). Higher values represent worse outcome. 'How much pain do you have' when 'Walking on a flat surface' (S1), 'Going up or down stairs' (S2), 'at night while in bed' (S3), 'Sitting or lying' (S4), 'Standing upright' (S5)\].
